Designer: Kitty Chen Couture

Why We Love Her:

Chloe is an enchanting dress that will flatter all brides. Her a-line silhouette paired with her corset boned bodice will emphasize the bride’s waistline, making it look snatched! While having the minimalistic look, Chloe still offers many enticing features that will make her stand out! Her mikado material gives the satin-like look as well as being slightly stiffer which allows the shape of the dress to be volumized. This material gives a sleek and chic appearance. Chloe will also be remarkable through all seasons! There will never be a time of year where this timeless dress does not exceed everyone’s expectations.

Beginning at her bodice, brides will fall in love with the modern plunge neckline. She will allow some classic brides to show some skin while still being modest. Moving to her skirt, Chloe definitely creates a statement. She has a single pleat overlapping top layer that creates a stunning thigh-high slit. While this slit is very prominent, how much it gets displayed is up to the bride! The bride can use it to show off her shoes or any leg tattoos if she chooses to do so! On top of that, Chloe will grant every bride’s wish of having pockets (whether she knows it yet or not)! Once a bride comes to that realization, she will not be able to look at the other dresses the same! Chloe will immediately be a fan favorite!

Dress Details

Chloe’s back surprises all the brides! The top is fully sheer with some lace appliques. This is interesting because it is the only spot of the dress where any lace or bead work is present. On top of that, she has fabric covered buttons that go from the top of the back down to the bottom of her cathedral length train!

Chloe is available in two different color options: ivory/tan and white/tan. She also comes with detachable mikado spaghetti straps.

She’s Great For:

Chloe is great for a classic bride who is looking to personalize her gown the way she wants! Due to her minimal detailing, brides can choose to pair her perfectly with pearl, diamond, or opal jewelry. She will also have the choice to match any type of veil; from a simple fingertip to a stunning lace and beaded cathedral veil. The options are limitless! Brides could also choose to add their own sleeves with various types of sleeves: off the shoulder, spaghetti strap, beaded, lace, or even a fur shaw!

What Makes Her Special:

What makes Chloe special is her stunning illusion back cutout! This detail alone is what sets this dress apart from all other minimalistics gowns. Brides who are loving the strapless look can still have the lower back feature without losing any essential support. Within this cutout lies nude colored boning, floral lace appliques, and some iridescent beading. This is the perfect touch of detail for a bride that wants a unique feature!

Having this lace panel also opens the door for the bride to match an extravagant lace veil of her choosing. While cathedral lace veils are a common pairing with the simplistic trains, some brides think that the lace can look out of place since there is no lace on the dress itself. With Kitty Chen‘s Chloe, that will never be a concern!

When shopping for your bridal gown as a plus size bride-to-be, you may be wondering what style dress will flatter you the most. The fact is, any of them! When they are tailored to fit your body and you feel secure and beautiful, any silhouette will be perfect! These are the three best plus size wedding dress silhouettes in our store.

1- Mermaid

There is no better shape to show off curves like a mermaid. The structure is such that it will hug everywhere and with the flared out skirt the balance is evened out. Mermaids can come in all necklines, from high neck halter to plunging strapless and this is where you can really make a statement!

Depending on your bust, you may or may not want to consider strapless. Larger bust brides may want to try on something with additional life and support such as a V-neck or a sweetheart with thin straps. So flattering, and a deeper plunge is an option when you are supported properly!

Medium and smaller busts can try out the above as well, but also strapless. Consider adding off the shoulder or detachable sleeves for two different looks. More modest brides may want a higher neck like a bateau.

Try on different necklines to see which one you feel best in and ask for trusted opinions if you aren’t sure. And keep in mind if you are a dancer, mermaids restrict movement in your legs so if you love mermaid but intend to dance the night away, you may want a second reception dress for the party!

2- A-line

The A-line shape is flattering on every body. The fun part of this shape is that you get to choose where the waist falls: is a natural waist or a dropped waist for you?

The natural waist is at the smallest part of your waist, usually where your hands are when you put your hands on your hips. This placement works well if you have a longer torso and balances your shape out nicely. If you have a shorter torso, this can make the bottom half look much longer. If you love the natural waist but have a short torso, a plunge neckline can give the illusion it’s longer.

The dropped waist hugs down farther on the hips. While still giving the A-line shape, the drop allows for extra detail on the bodice and adds a smoother transition to the full skirt.

3 – Sheath

A sleek and contemporary option that can be sexy or conservative, this style has no crinoline or flaring, just a simple straight line down. The sheath can also have different necklines, beading, and fabrics depending on your preference and formality of the wedding. Our plus sized brides who aren’t into the full skirts love the way this silhouette makes them look and feel like a modern bride.

Make sure you try all of these shapes on when you are hunting for your dress. Call ahead to the bridal shops, ask about their plus sized options, and make sure they have a good selection for you to try within your budget. Ensure they have professional stylists who know the best plus size wedding dress silhouettes and can make recommendations and give you ideas for modifications, accessories, etc.

Take your time and trying on all of the plus size wedding dress silhouettes and see which one makes you want to say Yes!
